An even time, then a terrifying break after the rest: on that 15-0 obtained with a suffocating defense, Tenerife builds the coup at PalaSerradimigni. It ends 64-82 and is the second defeat for Dinamo in a really tough women's Eurocup. All the more so if Restivo's team has to face it with one less foreigner, given that the long Slovenian Trebec is still injured.
It starts with very high rhythms but also a few too many mistakes. Tenerife finds Davis leading the attack in the handyman wing and tries to escape with a Montenegro basket: 14-23 in the 8th minute. Sassari reacts with Shepard who scores from three on the siren of the first quarter, then in the second fraction Lucas is unleashed who puts three bombs in a row from well beyond the arc to surprise the defender who is on her: 26-25 at 13 '.
Tenerife relies on the size of the center Bailey to get back ahead: 31-37, but Lucas continues to score from three (6/9 at rest) and Restivo's team remains in the game: 42-45 at half-time.
The second half, however, begins with the Spanish team that defends very strongly, annihilating the home attack: the break of 15-0 brings Tenerife ahead by 18 points, 42-60 in the 25th minute.
The playmate Moroni scores and tries to shake the teammates, but now the game is down for the guests, even if Shepard's awakening in the last quarter allows Sassari to file something.
